There is actually some science behind this. People's perception of time literally speeds up as they age. Our youth feels like forever, our young adult years still feel long and at that point it all feels like it will be forever, and then you blink and you're 56 wondering where the time went. It's a really well known phenomenon.

It's memory related imo, we forget so many things daily and over the years we just cant remember it all and so it doesnt feel like it was all lived.

[–] Imperious_melange@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Essentially yeah, it's heavily linked to novelty. For instance the drive to somewhere new or unusual is always longer than the drive home because we've already seen it so our neurons just dump all the information that's familiar aka not novel. If someone does the same thing in the same place for years then time flashes by but if they are having many novel experiences then it feels like a lot more time has passed.

So in short the longer we live the more we have seen, the more we have seen the more is familiar aka auto dumped information by our neurons before it even touches the level of our conscious mind.

I think a lot of that comes down to our ability to make personal comparisons. When you're 10 years old, a year is 10% of your entire lived experience. When you're 50 years old, a year is just 2% of your life. Life feels like it goes faster as we age, because we have so much more to compare it to as we grow older.

I think you just inspired me to take more pictures. It'd be nice to look back at my camera gallery every year to see what I had going on.

I do understand the truth. That's why I am too terrified every day to get anything done. 👍

Also: "DON'T GAMBLE SO MUCH."

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

No no no. This is just bad advice.

The real advice is to get the sports betting almanac, take it back to the 1980s, and gamble even MORE!!!

Then somehow become president.
